Really like this new piece and how it's coming along. The added light from both wounds help connect the composition! I don't think that the face is too butchered, just darker! The expression is still very strong! He might be hurting a bit more now haha :)
However I do think it's on the verge of becoming a bit confusing with the lines and flow of all the objects. I think that it's mainly the fingers being kind of close to the edge of the canvas aswell as pointing out of it. I would probably try and change some lines so that they flow between the character and the doll!
Some other lines that run parallell is his left arm and the needle, plus the armband and candle!
I hope that helps some mate!
Nice idea with the mattepaintings too, very subtle additions which read naturally. Seems like good practice! :D
